Thank you, I have recently been shortening my videos but I do still try to keep in as much as my thoughts as possible. I could make these videos 3 minutes long but don't feel like I'd say what needs to be said.
I actually didn't think your base paste looked that bad - it certainly worked as a base. Excellent little tutorial; and the end result is very effective!
Another nice one, Jay. I like how this made it look old, with slightly offset br4icks and such, but without shifting them so much as to look cartoony. Your two tone flock, and lichen bushes really round it out. Spiffing
I figured as I was doing it by hand, that if I just tried to make it straight I would end up with litlle imperfections, and so it proved. Thank you kindly :)
It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Partly because the foamboard is halfway cut, if you do the filling at the end, I think tit could be quick is,
pvc is such a great idea, I work in construction and we use a lot of the sheet stock for panelling and details on exteriors. We have some pieces of it that are too small for use, scoooooooore
Heh I think americans are the bulk of my audience and I just want to help as many people as possible, I might stilltake the mick every now and then though :P Thanks
Yeah I pinned a comment saying this, I should have, but I sort of didn't know what I was planning till I got there, but didn't want to make the video too long......though I am not sure I would have thought of gluing the sheets together as it never dawned on me.
I just scribe the brick/stone pattern into the foam with an old biro,I've built a 4' ×5' Dungeon that way,saves ages. Will send some photos when I can access games club where its stored.cheers.
@@TerrainMadeEasy I had a load of pink foam in my outhouse,sliced it up with my cutter into 3" high sections and built it as I went,with hindsight should have built the door gaps to fit Terrain Crate doors,I started making em out of coffee stirrers and paper clip rods as hinges,that was before all this covid malarkey.will hopefully get it finished when club reopens.
really good shout on looking at the scale of your 'bricks' -- and doing so early! -- Great Video :) -- Quick question, where did you get the foam safe spray from? is it pricey?
I'm getting a feeling that cutting the bricks from xps foam would be easier. (But I realize that xps foam is a bit harder to find for people than foam board)
Very cool tutorial. I am working on a futuristic prison & I can't figure out how to paint bars of a prison look like they are flowing with electrify. Got any ideas?
What I always liked about your videos is how you get into detail and discuss up and downsides of your method. Awesome result!

This looks just brilliant, and the trick with using stone to round of the bricks, I'm definitely using that.
You can use that to texture and round them off, but I felt I had more control and certainty using foil as well. Good luck and thanks :)
The wall looks very realistic Jay! Thanks for sharing this helpful tutorial.
Thank you very kindly. Hope you are well :)

It wasn't terrible or anything, I just didn't like it. I am not sure why! Thanks :)
Looks great! You could add the remains of door and window frames, lintels ,etc... Maybe a few stone slabs to suggest the original floor?
I did consider it, but honestly I had a few IRL issues so just wanted to get it finished, but for sure it could be added upon like that!

The secret ingredient is TIME! lol good result, easy, cheap, time consuming and repetitive? Sounds like it’s audio book time!

I would have glued the sheets together and then cut the bricks. Looks good though bud nice work.

Nice ide. I probably wouldn't use this for a bigger building because time but for ruins it seems ideal
For sure, this was more for people without xps and hot wire cutter :)
Love the video .So much going on .
Well thank you very kindly :)
Cool video, lots a great tips and tricks :)
Thank you very kindly :)
Great tips:)
Thanking you :)
Great video. I had the same thought as @RavenRich, then saw the cement and your reply. The end result looks great.
That's just one of those things that I just didn't think of but would have helped. Silly me! Thanks though :)

Are you using foamboard? I almost mentioned it as an alternative but cut for time :)

@@iancorrie7043 ooo it's xps, I understand, it's a little trickier to do with foamboard due to the thickness but sounds interesting :)
Looks class mate, to the Foam mines!
thanking you :)
Great tutorial! I'll have to pick up some foam board and give this a try!
Thank you and good luck :)

It's from Army Painter and is like the price of a GW can, I have a video just about them you can check out :)
you should try making a old rusty water tower
Sounds like something I might get around to :)

You are right, basically about 45% of my audience don't have access to xps, so made this for them mainly
👏👏👏

Look up how to paint light sabers, I think that might help, paint it maybe blue with like a white highlight?
Thank you. I shall give it a try. When I get it done I will shoot you a 📷.
@@joehayward4545 Good luck
Thanks I will keep you informed.
